This $7 Mpow car phone mount will help you keep your eyes on the road

Texting while driving is one of my biggest pet peeves. As if careening around in a metal tube wasn't inherently dangerous enough, some people decide to add distracted driving to the mix, and it drives me absolutely bonkers. Aside from being reckless, driving with a phone in your hand is also often illegal. Now you have multiple reasons to invest in this Mpow Car Phone Mount, which falls from $10.59 to just $6.99 at Amazon today when you enter promo code MPOW0333 during checkout. Shipping is free with Amazon Prime. Today's deal is the best we've posted for this particular mount.

$6.99 $10.59 $4 off

This features a long arm with a sturdy suction cup base, meaning you can make it work in cars with even the wonkiest of layouts. Angle the flexible arm towards you and you'll be able to clearly see your GPS or music player. Another nice bonus is that the arm brings your phone away from the vent a bit. If you drive in the winter, blasting your phone with heat from your car vents is one of the quickest ways to damage it, so having a bit of space between the two should help avoid any issues.

The mount is easy to install and remove. Pop it on your windshield or dash and pop your phone in. When your trip is over, the quick-release button means you can quickly remove your phone and stretch out your legs at the rest stop that much faster. The mount is compatible with smartphones measuring up to 6.8 inches, so most users should be covered. Your purchase includes a two-year warranty.
